Comment from author about the poem: Written: 9/18/2016\r\nThis poem is about the personal abuse I went through when I was younger and how I detached myself mentally from what was happening at that time.

I also read your author's note... I am so glad that this is in the past for you! I can relate to it because a long time ago I lived with a man who beat me. he broke my jaw and several other bones. it took true courage to get away from him. I left him taking only the clothes on my back. I wish you all the best.

For me it was a parent. It was hard to go through and I never truly escaped it. A fortunate event (for me of course) happened, my mom left him (not for the reason of her knowing, she didnt find out until years after this) and kicked him out of the house. So, it stopped because of that. I just take things day by day.
Im glad you were able to escape tho!
Much love, Domi

Domi, I can read the pain and anguish between the lines. You write so well!
I am glad that all this abuse is behind you. Yes, the scars will remain, but hopefully even those will hopefully heal over time. No child should have to go through what you went through. I admire your strength and resolve.

Thank you for the compliment on my writing, means a lot to me.
And honestly over time i just gathered the strength to just numb those feelings over time to now.
Its only know that I am able to express these feelings through my writing because holding it in got to be too much for me.
